The Pilot Clean Tech Demonstration Program supports clean technology businesses that have existing prototypes of their technologies and are ready to validate them in a real-world setting. Awardees can use the funding for such costs as testing and validating technological performance at customer sites, travel, equipment purchase, licensing and patent fees. A complete list of acceptable uses is available here.
CSIT recently hosted an informational webinar on the Pilot Clean Tech Demonstration Program. A link to that recording, along with a copy of the materials presented, can be found here.
